Ako Town 33 Kannon Pilgrimage


     In March, 1774, Maekawa Saburoemon went on Saigoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage.  He brought back 33 pinches of the sand of all the 33 temples.  In 1777, he enshrined the sands at the 33 temples in Ako.  Whether the 33 temples were member temples of Ako Town 33 Kannon Pilgrimage or those of Ako County 33 Kannon Pilgrimage is unknown.
